Chapter 31: Melting Ice (I)

When the old aunt saw Su'er, her expression of surprise, instantly became gloomy again. "You...... What's the use of bringing such a young child here? ”

It seems that the old aunt doesn't know Su'er's identity at all, and treats her as an ordinary little girl, and I have to explain it again. "Auntie, this is not an ordinary child, this is a witch."

"Witches? Except for the strange clothes of this child, he is no different from ordinary children. The old aunt muttered to herself. That's not what I think of as a witch. ”

"Auntie! We don't have time to explain it to you. With that, I and Zuo Dao Chang got in through the crack in the door and ran straight towards Jiao Yuqin's room.

Thanks to Zuo Daochang's previous preparations, the old aunt seemed to have really given up on the treatment of her wife, and the mountain of Chinese medicine bags in the room was gone, replaced by various white ribbons. This can't be blamed on the old aunt, because Jiao Yuqin's condition seems to be even worse than when we saw it yesterday.

His whole body is now in a state of bruising, and his fingers and mouth can move a few times before, but now his fingers are frozen into ice sculptures like other organs, and his mouth is also tightly closed at the moment, and he can't make any sound, only his eyes are still wide and wide at the moment, and the purple-red blood is like a dense old tree root in his eyes, and the 'mountain peak' below is still towering into the sky at this moment, and it has not been low for a moment. I couldn't help but gasp, this person is not a ghost or a ghost, and it is really not an exaggeration to prepare for the future.

"Hey......" Zuo Dao let out a long sigh. My initial prediction was also biased, I said that if I couldn't save him in two days, it would be no fun, but now it seems that I have estimated this time too much. The chill on this little devil's body is even worse than I expected, maybe we come a few hours later, and he will die. ”

"What a blessing! What a blessing! I closed my eyes and involuntarily fell silent.

I gasped and my scalp tingled, glad I had come a step earlier, but there was no trace of tension in Su'er, and she ran happily around the room. "Hey, hey, hey, I've caught the big fool!"

At this time, the old aunt began to get nervous at the door. "I said you two, I don't blame you if I can't save me, what if you bring a child over and frighten her?"

"Su'er!" I hugged Su'er over and said to her seriously. "Su'er, don't make trouble, do you remember how you promised your big brother just now?"

"I remember, I remember." Su'er pursed her mouth mischievously. "Big brother, let me kiss him."

"Yes, Su'er, kiss him quickly."

Su'er shook her head suddenly. "But just now the eldest brother said that he couldn't let me kiss others casually, should I listen to your previous sentence? Or do you want to listen to the latter sentence? ”

I thought to myself, this is really a little ghost, and I have learned to bargain. "Su'er, now my brother asks you to kiss him on the mouth, even if my brother begs you well."

"Hehe, then I want your big brother to treat me to two delicious foods."

"I promise you to eat as many times as you want." I replied without thinking.

"You guys! You guys! You've gone too far. "The old aunt suddenly jumped like thunder outside the door, if she hadn't been blocked by Zuo Daochang, she would have almost broken in." You're letting kids do such things! ”

Su Er pursed her lips and kissed Jiao Yuqin's purple-red lips.

This moment seemed to contain endless magic, and at that moment, we seemed to hear the sound of ice breaking, so crisp and clear.

The surface of Jiao Yuqin's body suddenly gave birth to many tiny cracks, and wisps of steaming white smoke emitted from the cracks, like a piece of ice cracked porcelain that had just been baked. Then his body began to shake violently, and all at once, with the ups and downs of his heart, he began to slowly regain his vitality. The bruises on his body began to dissolve rapidly, and I could even see the color in his veins reappearing, the bright red blood began to spread along the veins from his heart in all directions, and the embarrassing 'popsicle' beneath him slowly melted away like an iceberg in Siberia.

"Ah......h The sheets under him turned into a sea at this moment, and all the cold in his body evaporated.

He really came back to life, and we snatched him back before the hell gate closed.

"Auntie, the eighth child is already fine, but he needs to take a break to heal." Zuo Daochang said.

"Oh my God! Wife! The old aunt couldn't accept such a miracle for a while, and she cried with joy and knelt on the ground. Thank you, thank you, thank you. ”

Daoist Zuo and I hurriedly helped her up, and this 180-degree change in attitude was really unbearable. "Auntie, we have only done our best, you really want to be grateful, or you have to thank the gods and witches." As I spoke, I pointed to Su'er, who was bouncing around behind me.

"Yes! Thank you, little witch. Saying that, the old aunt hurriedly bowed to Su'er. What a prodigy! ”

"Hee-hee-hee, you're welcome." Su'er nodded nonchalantly.

"How can I thank you, I will give you as much money as you want, you are the great benefactor of our family, I will promise you whatever you want."

Su'er waved her hand disinterestedly. "What's the use of money? I don't want it, your family is too boring, I'm going to leave now, I want my big brother to take me to eat carp noodles and soup ......dumplings now," Su Er licked her lips as she spoke.

"I'll do all of this, little girl, you must be hungry, I'll do it for you." The old lady turned around and walked towards the kitchen. "You can't go hungry."

"No need, Auntie." I laughed awkwardly. "Since your wife is fine, let's say goodbye, don't be busy cooking, take good care of your wife."

"That's not good, the children are all hungry, and I will give you a big meal if I say anything." The old aunt wore an apron and began to hurry up with her hands. "And let me tell you, my hometown is Kaifeng, this carp noodles and soup dumplings are my best dishes, I dare to say that there are few people in Beijing who make better than me."

This statement made Su Er interested for a while. "Big brother, I want to eat, I want to eat grandma's cooking."

"Haha, little girl, just look at it, my two dishes are amazing."

Su Er seemed to be very happy, ran to Jiao Yuqin's living room, and began to fiddle with all kinds of decorations, but she didn't see anything at all.

"Forget it, Boss Liu, it's just a matter of a meal, as long as we pay attention not to let this little ghost have any more intimate contact with other people, it won't be a big problem." Zuo Dao Chang patted me on the shoulder. "You haven't slept all night, so it's okay to rest here."

"Okay, that's fine." In fact, Zuo Daochang was right, just now the nerves have been tense so I can't feel it, but now that the problem is solved, sleepiness has flooded all of a sudden. I sat down in my chair and prepared to take a nap.

In front of my eyes, the shadow of my tea house in the sunset slowly appeared, and I saw Yu Ge's smile even brighter than the sunset, if nothing else, I and Zuo Daochang should arrive home at dusk today.

"Ah! Ah Zuo! At this time, a voice suddenly pulled the half-asleep me and Zuo Daochang back to reality. Azuo Dao Chang. Thank you. ”

When I opened my eyes, it turned out to be Jiao Yuqin, who was looking at us sideways with tears streaming down his face. I didn't expect him to recover so quickly that he could already speak.

"Eighth." Zuo Daochang walked over slowly, wanting to ask something, but he choked his throat again. "You're just sick, so let's rest."

"Thank you for saving me, I ......, this ...... It's horrible. Jiao Yuqin coughed weakly twice. It's horrible! ”

This aroused my curiosity. "Mr. Jiao, can you tell us what happened that night? We have our own inferences, but we don't know if they're accurate? ”

Jiao Yuqin didn't hesitate, and immediately recalled it to us. "A week ago, I was looking at paintings in the Wuying Palace, and then I accidentally found a secret passage in the Forbidden City, in fact, it was really a coincidence, I was bored and said that the emperor arrived, and the result was automatically entered the secret passage, I didn't expect the Forbidden City to have such a high-level voice-activated device. You have to believe me, I'm telling the truth. ”

Daoist Zuo and I nodded. "Go on."

"You must believe me, there is a group of ancient people living in that secret passage, and most of them are women. The people there were very enthusiastic and told me the recipe for the secret way. When Jiao Yuqin said this, I am afraid that ordinary people will start to laugh at him and laugh at him for daydreaming.

"That night I was supposed to have dinner with two of my friends, and we both had a good time at the dinner table, and then we said that we wanted to find a massage or something, and I was also in a daze, so I took them to the Forbidden City."

I couldn't help but interrupt him. "Mr. Jiao, this is something I haven't been able to figure out, how did you sneak into the Forbidden City so late?"

"You don't know this, because I am not only engaged in decoration work, but also occasionally take on some repair projects, a few years ago our company participated in the renovation of the Forbidden City Treasure Building, of course, we are just to give people to do coolies, experts let us do what we do." Although Jiao Yuqin had just recovered from a serious illness and his voice was very low, he still heard it very clearly. "At that time, I knew several security guards in the Forbidden City, and then an acquaintance happened to be on guard that night, I stuffed him with some money, and he let me in after saying something good."

"So that's the case, Boss Jiao is really powerful." Daoist Zuo sneered, and there was a deep irony in those words.

"Oh, I really won't dare to do it in the future, who would know that there is poisonous gas in that secret passage, it's terrible." Jiao Yuqin said tremblingly. "I just remember that I got out of the secret passage, ran all the way north, and fainted as soon as I ran out of the Forbidden City. It's all retribution, retribution. ”

"Eighth!" Daoist Zuo suddenly became serious. "Do you know why you're going to have this kind of experience? If you think about what you've done over the years, we've all investigated it clearly, and you're a well-known figure in Beijing, opening a bar street. ”

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I know I've done too much evil over the years, and I'm ...... I did too many shady things to get retribution. Jiao Yuqin closed his eyes and began to repent, tears rolling down. I'm going to make amends, I'm going to sell all those bars and donate them to Hope Elementary School, and I'm going to do it. ”
